Chapter 31: Hogwarts Racing (Sixth Update, thanks to "Grandpa Bridge's highest" tip!) )
Looking at Thestrals' pitiful big eyes, William said helplessly to Cedric: "I was heard." ”
Needless to say, Cedric and Cho also knew, because the carriage stopped, and they fell last.
All the little wizards looked through the car door and looked at the three people who were left behind.
The twin brothers were still trying to wave and ask William what had happened, but the carriage went farther and farther away and disappeared into the night.
"Haha......" Cedric apologized awkwardly into the air, "I'm just kidding, I won't ask for your tail feathers, Hagrid and I are good friends, Hagrid, do you know each other?"
It's the tall administrator, who's my friend...... We are all good friends and family. ”
Cedric's desire to survive was so strong that even Hagrid moved out.
But the carriage still didn't go.
"I've got a way." William stared into Thestrals' eyes.
"I remember in the book Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, it was said that Thestrals liked to drink blood, especially the blood of powerful creatures."
"Don't, right? William, you're too cruel to take me to feed Thestrals! ”
"It's not." William pulled out a bottle from his pocket, it shone blood-red and was full of dragon blood.
Dragon's blood is extremely valuable, and Dumbledore alone discovered twelve uses for it.
Drinking this kind of thing raw can also strengthen the body, aphrodisiac and kidney, nourish yin and nourish the skin, not to mention that it is a first-class good thing when placed in a potion.
William now has a lot of dragon blood.
He donated half of the dragon to Hogwarts, but Lemay only took some of it, and the rest, including those donated to the Ministry of Magic and St. Mungo's Hospital of Witchcraft and Wizardry, was bought back by Hogwarts at the market price.
In other words, most of the dragons are kept at Hogwarts.
According to Dumbledore's instructions, William had priority at the disposal of the dragon, and he could use it at will, and then it would be Snape and Madam Pomfrey's turn.
This made Snape furious, and he made several fuss with Dumbledore, who was eager to drag the entire dragon back into his small box and store it.
However, Dumbledore did not let go, and still let William use it as he pleased.
Since it was used casually, William took a lot of dragon blood and stored it in his untraceable stretched bag.
He conjured a spoon with his wand and scooped up some of the red liquid slightly, and the smell of blood filled the air.
This is diluted by him, otherwise the flavor is even stronger.
The Thestrals stepped on the stone, snorted, and took a few steps in place, finally unable to help the "real fragrance", turned around and walked towards a few people.
William cautiously reached out and touched the Thestrals' head, its long black mane flicking back, eagerly licking the dragon's blood.
William soon knew why he was in such a hurry, and the whole earth trembled like drumsticks, and there was a roar in the distance, far and near, which became more and more clear and terrifying.
More than a hundred carriages, which had almost arrived at Hogwarts Castle, returned the same way, each four-wheeled car running wildly, causing a cloud of dust.
Thestrals rushed like crazy, and the little wizards in the car all clung to the seats in the carriage to prevent them from being thrown off.
"Gone." William laughed and sat down on Thestrals.
He's a well-known mountain bike god, and he hasn't raced at Hogwarts yet.
Eating the dragon's blood, Thestrals, getting more and more excited, spread its huge wings, first slowly crouched down, and then rushed into the sky like an arrow.
The speed and angle were so steep that William had to cling to its body tightly with his hands and feet so as not to slip off its bony tail.
Thestrals, pulling the carriage, rushed through the treetops, and flew towards the Black Lagoon, from which it prepared to reach Hogwarts Castle.
More than a hundred Thestrals all spread their wings and followed behind them, but the dragon's blood seemed to have an exciting effect, and the Thestrals under William became faster and faster, taking the lead and flying in front.
There were many small boats floating on the surface of the Black Lagoon, and the first-year students, led by Hagrid, were slowly heading towards Hogwarts Castle.
"What's that?" I don't know who it is, but I shouted loudly first, and everyone looked into the distance.
I saw William sitting at the front of the carriage, piercing the night from a distance, and suddenly appeared.
But in the eyes of most people, they can't see Thestrals, they can only see him floating in mid-air, flying head-on.
Looking back again, what fell into everyone's eyes was a carriage arranged in a line, like the head of the tide of the river, whistling and becoming the wind.
All the little wizards were stunned, they were still in the upper grades!
They applauded excitedly, and many of the young wizards stretched out their hands to try to greet the students they knew in the carriage.
William and Hermione beckoned, whistled again, and Thestrals' speed soared again, completely leaving the carriage in the distance.
Hogwarts has a name, and you win when you see the taillights!
Soon, they crossed the Black Lagoon and saw Hogwarts Castle.
"Will we come to school like this in the future?"
Harry pressed his windswept hair and asked Hagrid in the boat in front of him.
"Oh, I want to ...... Maybe. Hagrid was uncertain, "I've never seen Thestrals so excited, they're usually docile. ”
Harry and Ron were a little disappointed, and they wanted to ride something like that to go to school like a spree.
Especially Ron...... He remembered that his father had remodeled a green Muggle car for a summer vacation, and suddenly had a bold idea.
Thestrals slowed down suddenly, past a pair of magnificent cast-iron gates, and landed on a long ramp driveway, until it reached the castle, where many corner towers and towers gradually approached William.
At last the carriage came to a staggering halt, and William rolled over and got out of Thestrals, touched its body, and by the way, plucked several tail feathers from its tail and put them in his pocket.
William found that the original dragon's blood was still too concentrated, so he quickly put the coagulated blood clot on the spoon into the cup and stirred it.
At this time, countless Thestrals slowly stopped, and the little wizards all got out of the carriage, excitedly discussing the flight just now.
Cedric and William took the dragon's blood, which had been re-diluted countless times, and went from Thestrals to collect tail feathers.
They can't always pick a Thestrals' tail feathers, otherwise they will be bald.
Soon, they had taken a handful, and the three of them blended into the crowd in an attempt to get past Professor McGonagall, who was standing at the front.
Professor McGonagall pursed her lips and said nothing, but they were stopped by Professor Snape as they entered the oak door.
Professor Snape was still as sallow as ever, his hair hadn't been washed for an unknown amount of time, and William felt that he could blow up a pound of oil.
His hairline has improved a lot compared to before the summer vacation, and at this rate, he may be bald in seven years.
He grinned, a smug glint in his eyes.
"Hand it over, Diggory!"
"What, sir?" Cedric tried to feign a confused look.
He prayed in his heart that Snape would not see Thestrals, too.
But Snape's next sentence made him despair.
"Give me all the Thestrals tail feathers you've collected, don't make me say it a third time, hurry up!!"
Professor Snape began his forcible take.
